Lady Eagles fall to Kress

The Plainview Christian Lady Eagles have yet to find their "groove" and dropped their second consecutive game Tuesday night, falling to the Kress Lady Kangaroos, 39-28, in the Eagle's Nest.

The game was scheduled to be played in Kress, but the 'Roos scoreboard stopped working during Monday's games and forced the change of venue. Unfortunately, the Eagle's Nest didn't provide any solace for the Lady Eagles (0-2), who are still trying to develop chemistry.

"We're just not in a groove yet," Plainview Christian head coach Andra French said. "We're playing timid."

French said the timidity was due to the newness of the season.

"It's still the first of the year, and the whole program's different, the personnel is different, and we're still getting used to each other," French said. "They are still trying to figure out individual roles within the team."

The Lady Eagles turned the ball over 15 times and were unable to pick up any steals. French added that Kress exploited the Lady Eagles' struggles on the boards.

"We're really going to focus on rebounding (in the coming weeks)," French said. "And we need to work on our confidence in shooting. We need to spend some hours just shooting."

Audrey Sisemore led the Lady Eagles with seven points. The Lady Eagles did not have a 3-pointer.
